Been searching for Anathema posts and there is nothing. I take it they are not considered prog? Was going to post something about Danny Cavanagh touring.

Definitely prog, I haven't seen the contrary stated around, I guess less popular than other bands here on PA. Smile

The search function can be a bit temperamental at times. My own search turned up 69 posts with 'Anathema' in the topic title. Make sure you select 'All Forums' and 'Any Date' in the advanced search function.

Don't reviews count for anything? I know I've posted reviews for ten of their albums.

The OP is a newbie, maybe he'll explore the site and find what he needs. Smile

Probably not along all the alternative rock that now gets classified as ''prog'', but neverthless they are amazing. I posted a thread about Anathema some years ago after I purchased Weather Systems wondering why no one was talking about them. It seems they are just not that popular although well respected in their home city of Liverpool. Heard a better female vocalist than Lee Douglas? I haven't.

that's quite a bold statement... Christina Booth? Olivia Sparnenn-Josh? Hayley Griffiths? Rachel Jones? Anne-Marie Helder? Heather Findlay?
